Ask me anything you would like to know :) I highly recommend going to Mexico for the gastric sleeve surgery. It has changed my life!
Can I ask where you had your surgery in Ontario as I am considering this option.
Hi I am trying to make decisions on where to have this surgery and would like to speak to someone re Mexico clinic experience.
How much was the procedure and what kind of follow up is provided?
Thank you so much for your information. It makes me much more comfortable in my decision to get this procedure done and live a long and happy life :)
Hi, I'm from Nova Scotia. I went with Dr Alejandro Lopez and had no complications at all. Everything went extremely well and we were sightseeing two days after surgery! My best friend and I both had surgery the same day and are both doing awesome. I paid around $4500 US plus the cost of my flight. I flew into San Diego and a driver picks you up and drives you across the border. Then they take you to your hotel and back and forth to the hospital,etc. you are well taken care of from the moment you land in San Diego until you leave. It's honestly the best thing I've ever done for myself. It has saved my life and given my daughter a healthy mama. You won't regret it!
Hello KRS;
I am just in the beginning stages of starting the process for bariatric sleeve surgery and would be very interested in learning more about this doctor and the facility. I am Canadian so not sure if the costs are the same. What about medical coverage while you were in Mexico? I have been overweight my whole life and at 56 I am tired all the time. My health continues to go downhill and this is my last resort. I have tried diets and exercising only to gain more weight and I just want this last half of my life to be a happy and healthy one. I greatly appreciate any information you or anyone else can provide. Anyone from the Maritimes have this surgery in Mexico?
Thanks so much, Maura
